> Recently I quoted the rigid-flex (Class 3, Use C, complex shape, rigid
> area - 10 layers, two flex areas with 6 and 4 layers, via in pad with
> non conductive fill) with multiple manufacturers that I found on the
> web. I received "no bid" from some of them due to their limited
> capabilities.

> Three manufacturers were capable to build the board:

>
> Cosmotronic (better price, long delivery time) www.cosmotronic.com
>
> Rigid-Flex International (slightly higher price, better delivery time)
> www.rigid-flex.com
>
> Pioneer Circuits, Inc (high price with long delivery time)
